<h4 id="section-i---cfw-check">Section I - CFW Check</h4>
<p>As an additional safety measure, we will perform an additional check for custom firmware. This is because using this method when custom firmware is already installed has a risk of bricking the console (rendering it unusable without recovery methods like <a href="ntrboot">ntrboot</a>).</p>
<ol>
<li>Power off your console</li>
<li>Hold the (Select) button</li>
<li>Power on your console while still holding the (Select) button</li>
<li>If the check was successful, you will boot to the HOME Menu and you may proceed with this guide</li>
<li>Power off your console</li>
</ol>
<p class="notice--danger">If you see a configuration menu or the console immediately powers off, you already have CFW, and continuing with these instructions may BRICK your console! Follow <a href="checking-for-cfw">Checking for CFW</a> to upgrade your existing CFW.</p>
<h4 id="section-ii---prep-work">Section II - Prep Work</h4>
<ol>
<li>Power off your console</li>
<li>Insert your SD card into your computer</li>

</ul>
</li>

<h4 id="section-iv---flipnote-exploit">Section IV - Flipnote Exploit</h4>
<p class="notice--info">If you would prefer a visual guide to this section, one is available <a href="https://zoogie.github.io/web/flipnote_directions/">here</a>.</p>
<p>In this section, you will perform a series of very specific steps within Flipnote Studio that, when performed correctly, will launch b9sTool, the boot9strap (custom firmware) installer.</p>
<ol>
<li>Complete the initial setup process for the launched game until you reach the main menu
<ul>
<li>Select the left option whenever prompted during the setup process</li>
<li>If you encounter an issue while doing this section, <a href="troubleshooting#installing-boot9strap-fredtool">check this troubleshooting guide</a> for your issue</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Using the touch-screen, select the large left box, then select the box with an SD card icon</li>
<li>Once the menu loads, select the face icon, then the bottom right icon to continue</li>
<li>Press (X) or (UP) on the D-Pad depending on which is shown on the top screen</li>
<li>Select the second button along the top with a film-reel icon</li>
<li>Scroll right until reel “3/3” is selected</li>
<li>Tap the third box with the letter “A” in it</li>
<li>Scroll left until reel “1/3” is selected</li>
<li>Tap the fourth box with the letter “A” in it</li>
<li>If the exploit was successful, your console will have loaded b9sTool</li>
<li>Using the D-Pad, move to “Install boot9strap”
<ul>
<li>If you miss this step, the system will exit to HOME Menu instead of installing boot9strap and you will need to open DS Download Play and start over from the beginning of this section</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Press (A), then press START and SELECT at the same time to begin the process</li>
<li>Once completed and the bottom screen says “done.”, exit b9sTool, then power off your console
<ul>
<li>You may have to force power off by holding the power button</li>
<li>If your console shuts down when you try to power it on, ensure that you have copied <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">boot.firm</code> from the Luma3DS <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">.zip</code> to the root of your SD card</li>
<li>If you see the Luma Configuration screen, power off your console and continue to the next section</li>
</ul>
</li>
</ol>
<h4 id="section-vi---luma3ds-configuration">Section VI - Luma3DS Configuration</h4>
<ol>
<li>Press and hold (Select), and while holding (Select), power on your console</li>
<li>Your console should have booted into the Luma3DS configuration menu
<ul>
<li>Luma3DS configuration menu are settings for the Luma3DS custom firmware. Many of these settings may be useful for customization or debugging</li>
<li>For the purpose of this guide, <strong>leave these options on the default settings</strong> (do not check or uncheck anything)</li>
<li>If your console shuts down when you try to power it on, ensure that you have copied <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">boot.firm</code> from the Luma3DS <code class="language-plaintext highlighter-rouge">.zip</code> to the root of your SD card</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Press (Start) to save and reboot</li>
</ol>
<p>At this point, your console will boot to Luma3DS by default.</p>
<ul>
<li>Luma3DS does not look any different from the normal HOME Menu. If your console has booted into the HOME Menu, it is running custom firmware.</li>
<li>On the next page, you will install useful homebrew applications to complete your setup.</li>
</ul>
<h4 id="section-vii---restoring-ds-download-play">Section VII - Restoring DS Download Play</h4>

<ul>
<li>If there are any errors or missing files, correct the problem and try again</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>If the process was successful, tap the touch screen, then press START to exit</li>
<li>Power off your console</li>
